Hi Tammy,

Thanks for your query.

Headache + vomiting were most likely due to hangover along with acute alcohol-induced stomach irritation. Persistent headache is apparently due to blunt injury over head. A short course of Anti-inflammatory pain-killers will cure the concussion effects. Get a dressing done of the gash wound over the scalp.

Consult your doctor and apprise him of my opinion. I am certain that he will agree with me, order required tests, and- based on the reports- will prescribe suitable/modified treatment as advised.

If you find my response helpful and informative, do not forget an “excellent” (5-star rating) to my answer, to ENCOURAGE ALL doctors- engaged in social service- to render sound advice to the FREE queries.

Take care
